Hi all, I have this samsung CFG70 curved monitor that I tried to mount to a vesa stand (It’s curved so it wasn’t a great idea in the first place). I mistakenly used screws that were too long and managed to screw into one of the main board parts, does this look repairable? After removing the damaged part (which had the same G702K label as the part immediately below it), it looks like there might be some trace damage. So I was thinking my options are: 1.Buy the exact replacement part and try to solder it back on (https://www.alldatasheet.com/view.jsp?Se…) 2.Try to find the exact same main board (noting it’s a discontinued model), or another broken samsung monitor which has the same part on the mainboard 3.Give up Does anyone have experience with this issue or have any thoughts?
Hi, Is the part information still visible on the damaged part(s)? Which “exact” part have you linked? Looking at the list you linked, the “descriptions” of each of the part types cover a lot of different types of components. Having the schematic would help. Then you could see how the component fitted int the circuit and wire in a replacement as you would know where it was connected to. You could do this by tracing connections back from where the component was situated and then wiring from the other components to the replacement component which could be mounted on a piece of electronics breadboard (example on to show what I mean) or pcb etc. What is the “board model number” (printed on the board itself)? use it to hopefully find the schematics e.g. search for (insert board number) schematics. The alternative is to find a replacement board if the price is right, from either the same model monitor which has a broken screen or is just for sale separately and use it instead
